Backline advice - please help

TheBeatles · August 16, 2011, 09:12:59 PM

current backline

Gibbs, Goddard, Lids, Adcock, Duffield, Lower, Birchall (Toy, Chaplin, Thompson)

Have 2 trades and $23K left

Thinking of trading Lower to??? Any suggestions of defenders $302K and under.
Keeping other trade for murphy next week.

Whitecross maybe or will he score same as Lower ???

John Lennon and George Harrison aren't avaliable at the moment but you could pick up Paul McArtney or Ringo Starr. A long shot could be Pete Best.

Not many good options for that price tag I don't reckon.

Might have to sit tight with the squad you have.

cheers windigo - hopefully lower still gets a game!!

He should. Would be pretty harsh to drop him after his solid performances before hand. Beside, is there injury list longer than Dumbledore's beard still? :P

why would you even comment?

and mate its probably not worth upgrading to someone at 302k, use your trades elsewhere

lower is good enough cover i guess
not someone attractive enough at that price anyway to consider using a trade on

haha yeah go the blues!

Any choice you do make would be speculative and Lower might just come out this week and outscore them anyway. Your not working with a high enough budget to make it worth trading out Lower.

You may improve another area of your field that can make up for any low scores in regards to Lower.

Very interesting having chaplin on the bench... no need to trade lower, just stay put and cross ur fingers

Only one id think about would be Doughty. Under Bickley he's getting it done,nice score last week.
